Feature Story: Louise and Rebecca Reeder

The Wedding of Louise and Rebecca Reeder on 27th July 2015

When searching for a wedding venue, it soon became apparent that we were searching for a venue that had a 'heart', a welcoming feeling that would emulate us as people. Then we found the Jinney Ring and all of our prayers had been answered.

From the first time that we met Amanda in person, it was evident that she was as passionate about our wedding as we were. So many other venues we had visited were quick to inform us on what 'we' wanted but Amanda listened and then delivered, from the pork pie cake that we envisaged to allowing our dogs to attend our wedding wearing bandanas.

In the weeks following our initial consultation with Amanda, we soon had the pleasure of meeting Shirley (quite possibly the best chef in the Midlands) who was responsible for our wedding breakfast. Once again, instead of being told which set menus were available for certain costs, we were allowed the freedom to design our own menu, whether that be silver service to an afternoon tea. Shirley suggested locally sourced ingredients and WOW was she right to do so. The food that we received on our special day was simply sublime! Our guests still talk about it now and many have returned with their friends and family since our wedding to taste Shirley's culinary delights once more. Shirley even baked our beautiful wedding cake, which again was so personal to us and also extended this to an incredible pork pie and cheese cake that we had as part of our evening offerings for our guests. It was nothing short of sensational.

Louise and I remember Amanda saying that the Jinney Ring is a 'family' and we have certainly been made to feel like a part of this extended family. We often visit the Jinney Ring and are always welcomed by a smiling face, an opportunity to reminisce with serving staff that recognise us or a friendly catch up with Amanda.

Amanda and her husband Malcolm are truly wonderful people. We cannot recommend the Jinney Ring enough. They go above and beyond in every aspect prior to, during and following the happiest day of your life to make it simply a day to remember.

We take this opportunity to thank Amanda, Malcolm, Shirley and all of the fantastic staff at the Jinney Ring for truly giving us a remarkable, memorable and wonderful day.
